    My lineup for the game

    De Gea
    Young Bailly Rojo Blind
    Herrera
    Fellaini Pogba
    Lingard Zlatan Mkhi​
    I think you're right about Herrera/Pogba/Fellaini in this game, we need some height here. I went with that as well.

    Luckhurst blinked when Valencia entered The Lowry and missed him. We all know how fast Tony V is, easy mistake to make. Just ask Valdes.
    I hate it when something like this comes out just before the match and you change your lineup because of it only to be wrong. Now I have no idea if to put him in my lineup.

    Reading the comments here, you could almost think that we're losing every other game. Imagine if we actually start to lose games :houllier:
    To be fair, with 11 draws already and 8 of them at home, each new draw feels more like a loss.

    Then again, it's just a lineup prediction game thingy ;)

    I have a doubt about the quality of Lukaku and how good he is against big teams, what's his track record against the likes of Chelsea, Arsenal, Liverpool Spurs, City etc ? if he gets a brace tonight, will that count a having dispelled my doubt ?

    Hopefully Lukaku goes ghost again tonight and spends 90 minutes in Bailly's pocket.

    2-0 United. Zlatan scores a brace to make up for his absences.

    No clue, but he has never given United any trouble.

    Really? I can't remember that. Wait? The WBA final Fergie match? That was hardly competitive.
    :lol: yeh, but surely it still counts! It did get me thinking though, is that game the only time he's scored against us?

    We need to start the game with high energy and tempo and score a goal early on to make a more open game this time.

    Fellers and Schneiders to score!

    Please, please, please United, just give us a win. It's like everytime 3rd or 4th spot is there for the taking, we just can't get that single goal we need! So damn frustrating!

    Hope we can break that hoodoo and pull away from the Gooners and closer to City. Would also improve the gap between us and Everton too.

    Come on United!

    Open letter to Mr. Mourinho

    Dear Jose..
    .. it is that day of the year, one year older, smarter, better looking, funier.. No, I'm not talking about you, it's me! It's allways me! I will not tell you how old I am, only that I'm still younger, and much stronger than you (very important information, specially when you read sentence with word Zagreb in it) Already bit under influence of wonderfull cold beer, and it is getting warmer, so I'll be quick.
    As a present, I would like you to get me:
    1. 3 points
    2. a very good performance,
    3. no Rooney
    4. a smile or two
    numero uno is a must, and number 4 would be sweeeet, nr 2 would be more than welcome, but only, I said only if nr 1 is in the pocket, don't play well and get a draw, had enough of that, nr 3 no no no, unless Lukaku needs to be put down in the last minute of the game... So, to sum up, 1, 2 and 4 and it is a happy day for me.... If not, next time you are in Zagreb, I will be there too.....

    Darn, beer is warmer... see you all later..

    Completely change the front line for this being as our front 4 only made 6 passes into the opposition box on saturday.
    I never knew this. That's horrendous.
    At least with Ibra, we are guaranteed to have the ball being passed constantly inside the penalty box.
    Without him, it's as if our attackers have no interest in actually scoring a goal.
    In our last game, we could've scored had we had a fox in the box, for easy tap-ins.

    I think under Jose, we expect wins.
    But at least it shows that standards have been raised, since Jose arrived.
    Last year, we'd be happy to get a draw against some of the teams we lost against. Teams like Stoke, Norwich or Bournemouth.
    This season, with the raised standards, we expect wins against those teams.

    No clue, but he [Lukaku] has never given United any trouble.
    In our FA Cup game, last season (I think it was), Lukaku was my man of the match....for MUFC.
    He was so wasteful in front of goal, I couldn't believe what I was seeing.
    If I were the FA, I'd have done a quiet investigation into whether or not Lukaku (or a family/friend) had not put a huge bet on Everton not scoring.
    Hopefully, Lukaku delivers another MOTM performance (for MUFC), today. ;)

    Reading the comments here, you could almost think that we're losing every other game. Imagine if we actually start to lose games :houllier:
    The comments are only really saying game is likely to end in a draw and given our home record (W: 6, D: 8, L:1) - and home form (W: 1, D: 4) - it isn't exactly an unfair prediction. We've only scored 20 goals in 15 home games - same amount as last season after 15 home games, and only six teams have scored fewer home goals than us. Then, we had 31 points from the 15 games. This season we've got 26.

    Overall, we're doing much better this season but our home form leaves a lot to be desired hence the negativity.

    I'm feeling good though now. Everton have quite a few injuries.
